While the United States has been on a high pedestal of prowess in recent times, the team was set to become the CONCACAF continental power their gold cup victory was resounding for the world to see how United State and Christian Pulisic were stronger daily

After missing out on the 2018 world cup in Russia, the USA is set to reappear at the Mundial in Qatar at the end of the year which is touted to be one of the greatest outings since 1986 due to the caliber of players in their rank while the MLS is rapidly growing as one of the bat leagues in the world.

At the center of it all is the man of the moment, the legend in the making, and the man that the majority of the United State Men National Team member look up to for solutions when the match is heading south and out of their grasp.

Though, United States Men National Team is growing to be one of the finest CONCACAF team as they set to dominate more and despite them not qualifying yet in what looks assured that they have already booked there world cup ticket in Doha, the team will look to at least lost their match against Costa Rica with minimum of six goals to eventually oust themselves from World Cup finals on November.

More so, while Christian Pulisic was just a rising star in 2017 as USMNT only better Trinidad and Tobago in the fifth round qualifying series. Though the 2022 qualifying series was heading in 2018 nostalgia trend until the Chelsea playmaker took charge and began to dictate the play for his team,   which ensure that the United States of American flag is among the best 32 team that would showcase their culture, talents and pride at the end of the year in Qatar.

Moreover, the ravaging injury has prevented the American star man to exert his dominance for the Thomas Tuchel team in what would have been a fine season for the American star man under the guidance of the man that nurtured his development at Borussia Dortmund.

However, the Stamford Bridge outfit will be looking to count on his availability throughout the remainder of the European season as the blues are still in the hunt to scoop FA Cup, UEFA Champions League for the second time in a row and will be looking to pounce on any slip up from Manchester City and Liverpool as they looked to catch up with the two monstrous teams that have dominated the Premier League for more than five years now in the ongoing Premier League campaign.

Even though the odds of winning the Champions League are not in favor, the resurging of the Christian Pulisic will be vital for the west London club as they look to usurp the trophy from the bookies and pundit favorites in Manchester City, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich.

To be the champion of Europe once again Chelsea will need the prowess of Christian Pulisic to up them over Real Madrid as he did in the previous encounter that saw Chelsea advancing over Real Madrid in their semi-final clashes as Pulisic registered a goal against the Spanish giant club their triumph in the final over English football heavyweight club, Manchester City

Unlike the last encounter when Chelsea was largely the underdog going to encounter, the Stamford Bridge team will be heading to the quarter-final berth as an overwhelming favorite with 2.05 odds according to Betoclock.com Champions League predictions

Christian Pulisic is gradually returning to the lethargic form that ensures Chelsea could splash £57.6 million on the former Borussia Dortmund playmaker in the summer of 2018-19, the American man will be the lynchpin in Chelsea’s quest to once again fight for the major trophy at the end of the current campaign.

With a Champions League medal on his neck, driving the United State Men’s National Team to their destination in Qatar, despite fizzling out of the contest in the previous edition of the World Cup in Russia 2018, Christian Pulisic has once again justified why he neds to be considered as one of the greatest American soccer players

Though he would need to win the Premier League, which is touted to be the best in the world according to FIFA and UEFA coefficients without such a medal tied around his neck, Pulisic has already been expelled on the path laid by his predecessor while threading the oath of European glory

Jovan Kirovski might have been the first United State soccer player to win the Champions League while playing for the former club of Pulisic in the 1996-98 season, but the current LA Galaxy technical director had little impact to impose his importance on such a prestigious club, while Christian Pulisic made history as the first American to make UEFA Champions League final appearance and winning it and some other medals may have following

Winning Champions League brings a euphoric feeling but nothing come close a player exerts g himself as a driving force that catapults his fatherland to the greatest footballing competition at an unprecedented time

However, gearing his fame to rival the influence of the likes of Landon Donovan influence in his playing days with the USMNT, Christian Pulisic is living the dream of being one of the most influential young men in the United States and not in the national team alone as many American are now gearing toward the fun in soccer as Pulisic name is gradually getting sweeter in the mouth many

Moreover, taking charge of driving your nation to yet another World Cup after failed attempt in the previous one is not such a leader feat, but setting the template for other American build on in world stage in just about matter on a year and half is a reference to the Disney in the head of the Chelsea’s forward.

While injury might have prevented the American man to further implant himself as one of the best player in Chelsea since the beginning of the season, but Chelsea is fighting for two crucial title in FA Cup and Champions League, while the Stamford Bridge club is patiently bidding their time behind Manchester City and Liverpool on English Premier League table as one of the favorites.

Pulisic will be euphoric to be the main man that driving his club to glory once again as he established with his national team. Definitely, Christian Pulisic is the man of the moment and he has every firepower to transcend his moment to be the one true global superstar that many American want in him.
